If you believed your body was good, how would that change your life? For author Jess Connolly, it radically changed the way she saw herself. The more she remembered how compassionate God was toward her, the more she treated her body with kindness and care—and the more joy she found.
Quotes
“[I thought,] If God has said my body is good, if I believe that truth, how would I act? How would I move? And then I had to really start to live like I was free before I felt like I was free.” - Jess Connolly
“My Father, who is compassionate and kind, who created this world with love and tenderness and justice and rightness, how could He not be compassionate toward me?” - Jess Connolly
“Consider talking to God about how you feel about your body and consider the possibility that He wants to talk back. There is a world of intimacy to be found in just communicating with our father about this issue.” - Jess Connolly
“Speak kindly and speak truth about your body the same way God would talk about your body, and talk to Him and hear what He has to say back.” - Jess Connolly
